Enemy of my enemy … as much as I detest Cummings, if he has any dirt that could unseat Johnson, then I hope it comes out.

The whole ‘staring at maps’ to find opportunities to ‘build things in his honour’ rings very true.

The Garden Bridge and Estuary Airport were the most obvious examples. But so is the scandalous waste of money and corrupt procurement over the Olympic Stadium — it was design to be downscaled until Boris got his grubby paws was on it.

There were rotten deals with Chinese ‘investors’ who never invested in Crystal Palace Park and the Royal Docks. There is a ‘Boris Bus’ that is more aptly called the ‘Boiling Bus’ — designed by the same twat who came up with Garden Bridge.

And then there were the ‘Boris Bikes’. Barclays Bank shells out £30 million to install what I’m sure they thought would be referred to as the Barclays Bikes. Boris flails around on one for 5 minutes and is then only too happy for the Evening Standard to run a headline that calls them ‘Boris Bikes’. Any other Mayor’s press office would be hammering home the name of the sponsor — but not Johnson’s. Is it any wonder that Barclays refused to renew their deal?

Was he the one who allowed West Ham to move in there?
